Families waited hours, some even overnight, just to get a few boxes of food for their family.

Morgan Logan with Feed the Children said the work has to start here.

"I think it's really important to take care of one another. If everyone tried to help their neighbors, they would lessen the problem a little bit," said Morgan.

Feed the Children is a Christian non-profit organization that started its outreach in the 1970s by focusing their efforts on worldwide hunger. The founder, Minister Larry Jones, took a mission trip to Haiti and started the non-profit.

Today, its reach has become more localized. With the growing demand in the U.S., the face of hunger has changed.

Miami resident Ilya Williams has a job, but sometimes it's not enough.

"It's really, really hard these days. Sometimes, I don't know where my next meal will come from, but I do trust in God," said Williams.
